City Says Cleanup Claim at Burned Warehouse Doesn't Match Reality

A July 28 city inspection found rotting food waste and nearly 200 flies at a Boyle Heights warehouse that burned in June, leaving 85 million pounds of spoiled food. That contradicts company Lineage Logistics' July 25 claim that waste had been cleared. Health officials issued six citations totaling $4,500 and will start daily fines up to $2,000.
